    Hey guys, our spy agency just disbanded Band of Brothers, formed a new corp with that name so they can't use it again, and stole a ton of assets. At the next downtime BoB is going to lose sovereignty over the entirety of their territory.

    I'm posting this on several forums

    Haha this is great :)

    So my guess is that they'll petition the name back like CoW did when a goon stole it, but lose sov regardless, like when xDeathx didn't pay their bill half a year ago. 4 weeks until they can have jammers back up.

    This is the single most amazing end to a war ever.

    I'm working on a bunch irl atm so I haven't resubbed this week, but I think I might so I can be part of the mad dash for sov.

    The guiding hand social club isn't an alliance. Spying has always happened, yes, but it was Goonswarm that first made organized spying a major part of general warfare on an alliance scale (and got frequently denounced as honorless for it).

    Wait, MERCHI is in trouble?

    Oh God.

    Oh God damn.

    I may have to resub. I remember our days in Hosh, mining in an Osprey, playing cat and mouse with Joshua Keeling, tremendofag that he was.

    I remember flying against... what were they? The minmatar group that was against CVA.

    And I remember hunting down strays from Smush down in E-Pros and the surrounding space. I've been EVE free for like eight months now.

    But damn if you guys need pilots, I may have to resub. Zethran Armand is considering coming out of retirement and I'll be bringing my Raven to war.

    This is hilarious as hell otherwise though. The note left in the bob wallet was my favourite part. 8bil + caps and bs fleet, no more alliance name, and a simple wallet entry "The Mittani sends his regards"

    For an explanation if you're curious from mittens himself: http://reversegaming.com/welp/mittens.mp3


    I have dual killdozer domis setup, flew down a fleet fit megathron, will be moving my interceptor and hictor stockpiles in convoys, and I will burn through these until there is nothing left. Logistics are going nuts trying to keep up with moving materials down for this push. If you've been curious, this is probably the best time to join and participate in (what I really hope) will be the largest fight over territory yet.

    Of course if you're making a new account to join up with a single post in this thread you're probably not going to be welcome to the party.

    Why do you say it's too late for that?

    With BOB gone, can I return and not get ganked the second I leave a station? Or have I already been ker-punted from MerchI for inactivity?

    ccp has never reverted sov changes due to bugs/hackers to my knowledge, let alone a legit fuckover like this was. hell, look at goons recently-they had an important system lose sov solely due to bugs, and ccp wouldn't fix it and told them to just gut it out for a month

    bob may be able to petition their name back but i dont even think they'll pull that off right now
    edit-tell me when and where you want to undock from and i'll escort you to safety!
